Near Sawrey

Monday, May 10, 2010

A full house tonight and the incoming guests all arrived by lunchtime.
This meant we could get out for a walk this afternoon, we first called in at the garden centre for some compost and then parked up and walked up Skelghyll.







Although it was a bit gloomy we had some great views especially from Jenkyn Crag.
An interesting thing was when we came across a couple of sets of gate stoops,it turned out that this was the line of the water pipe which runs from Thirlmere to supply Manchester with its water, a truly amazing piece of engineering!
